deployment question: how do you handle AI VFX?

One thing worth trying with deployment question: how do you handle AI VFX? is a controlled comparison around deployment and vfx. Use the same input for each test and note what changes in the output rather than judging from a single run. That way you can improve the workflow without losing track of what caused the improvement.
 
For deployment question: how do you handle AI VFX?, I would separate the problem into setup, output quality and repeatability. deployment and vfx fits into that because it can change the result quite a lot depending on the workflow. If you share the exact setup, it would be easier to narrow down which part matters most.
